The CPDT-KA Exam Study Course will help prepare you to successfully complete the Certified Professional Dog Trainer Knowledge Assessed (CPDT-KA) Exam

Are you a serious professional dog trainer who is interested in gaining the knowledge to successfully complete the Certified Professional Dog Trainer Knowledge-Assessed (CPDT-KA) Exam? Whether you are new to the profession or seasoned as a dog training instructor, you will increase your understanding of the science and art of learning, canine development, behavior, ethology, husbandry and health through the CPDT-KA Exam Study course. There’s something here for all dedicated dog trainers to enhance your understanding and ability to work with dogs and their people. Plus, by taking this informative course, you’ll gain access to a reliable cohort of professional trainers across the nation that is also studying for the exam. This network provides encouragement and support, with the guidance of the instructor and successful CPDT-KA certificants, to assist you in your exam preparation. Become the newest certified CPDT-KA in your state and position yourself at the top of the industry!

Course Date:This is primarily a self-study course, designed to familiarize you with every topic included in the CPDT-KA certification exam. There are 7 pre-recorded lectures, one corresponding to each topic. You can listen to each lecture at your convenience, and as often as you like. Following each lecture is a quiz on that particular topic, which you can take as often as you like.

For those who have limited online time, transcripts of each lecture can be downloaded and read at your convenience. There is also a final exam, made to simulate the CPDT-KA exam, albeit a bit shorter, which you can also take for practice as often as you like.

The course instructor is available by email on a limited basis to answer any questions that might arise regarding lecture content; you can expect an answer in 48-72 hours.

For daily test-taking practice with the kinds of questions that will appear on the CPDT-KA exam, you can join our private Facebook page, on which are posted (by a CPDT-KA trainer) 5 test questions each day (covering all 7 topic areas), with answers and discussion posted the following day. Help with any technical issues that might arise is readily available through etraining for dogs.

Professional practices and ethics as prescribed by the CCPDT, including the Humane Hierarchy and how that applies to real-world dog training, and an explanation of the ethical statement that CPDT-KA applicants are required to sign.

Learning theory and application: classical and operant conditioning, cues, stimulus control, shaping, management, Premack and Thorndike’s principles, and how these are applied to training plans.

Thorough understanding of training equipment: proper uses, advantages and disadvantages, including a discussion of tools which are considered aversive.

Current theories on the history of canine domestication, facts about canine development through all life stages including puppies, adolescent, adult and senior dogs, tour through classifications of dogs and their breed tendencies.

Canine health and husbandry: basic nutrition, grooming, parasites, current vaccination guidelines and infectious diseases, symptoms which may limit a dog’s participation in training and emergency first aid.

Text and required supplies: There are no textbooks required for the CPDT-KA Exam Study Coursebut it is strongly recommended that each student review the CCPDT’s recommended reading list for the exam.

Quizzes:

There is a practice quiz at the end of each lesson.

Final Exam: The CPDT-KA Exam Study Course final exam will be a written exam consisting of 100 questions to be completed within 90 minutes. The final exam will be multiple choice and true/false. Questions are written to best mimic the CPDT-KA exam.

Live Web Chats: There will be two live web chats scheduled before the start of each exam period. This is your opportunity to bring questions for discussion and review. If you find there is a concept you are having difficulty with or simply would like more clarification, chances are another student has the same question. Of course, students are always welcome to contact the instructor via email at any time.

Facebook Group: Students will be allowed access to an active group on Facebook where study questions are given and discussed. Each cohort of students is invited to continue participation after their exam period so that they may, in turn, encourage and assist new students in preparation. This has grown to be a congenial and safe place to discuss training methods and prepare for the exam.

Registrants will receive:

Information about the certification qualifications and application process.

Systematic review of the CPDT-KA test subjects.

Downloadable, written notes for every lesson.

Relevant and informative, printable study sheets and worksheets.

Access to live web chats for real time group study.

There is a saying that goes "misery loves company." This course takes the misery out of studying for this exam. The instructors are extremely supportive and I enjoyed the confederate of the other students.

“I doubt if I would have passed without the structure of the program and exam”

I just wanted to let you know that I passed the CPDT exam 235 score / 250. Passing score 195. The course was excellent, and I doubt if I would have passed without the structure of the program and exam. Thanks a bunch and now I'll be focusing on the CBCC-KA. Barbara Gallardo, CPDT-KA

“91% [pass]… I relied solely on studying this course”

91%, which I could never have done without this course.

“I found that this course was great preparation”

I found that this course was great preparation as the reading list for the exam was more extensive than I was going to have time to read and I likely would have read books that weren’t material for the test. All in all I will definitely be participating in another course through e-training for dogs. Lots of great options for additional learning. Please thank Catherine for me on the course content. I was not able to attend the web chats but did view them after the fact and found the explanation on answering quadrant questions helpful. Fotina Karavas, CPDT-KA

“I was proud of my score”

I was proud of my score (but wondering what I’d missed!) at 236. The combination of the review course and Facebook group really helped me “debug” my understanding of the operant quadrants, and certain contingencies. The review course filled in gaps in my knowledge, though, and combined with the Facebook group gave me great opportunities to practice applying my knowledge. I’m sure it raised my test score.

“All in all truly a course I would recommend to everyone who is sitting for the exam.”

This course was as advertised in my experience and prepared me for the exam. My scores during the course predicted my exam score of 236. What was most helpful to me was having gone through a process that allowed me to be confident walking in to the exam. I knew that I was prepared and knowledgeable of the subject matter. The only advice I didn't take was that of driving to your testing site to make sure you deal with all of that so there are no surprises on exam day. I didn't, then I ran into construction and sure wish I had. All in all truly a course I would recommend to everyone who is sitting for the exam. Hud Darrah, CPDT-KA

Worth its weight in gold!

I did the e-Training for Dogs, Inc.’s - "CPDT-KA Fundamentals" course in 2014 when I studying for the CCPDT exam. I saw other options but decided on this course since it covered all 6 domains of the exam – Instructional Skills, Animal Husbandry, Ethology, Learning Science, Training & Management Equipment, Professional Practices & Ethics. There are 7 lessons with two live web chats with the instructor, with a quiz at the end of each lesson, with a final exam at the end of the course. As part of this course is the fantastic closed study group for Students on Facebook. In the Facebook Group, Students can ask questions ranging from the Training Log and applying to take the exam, to what is needed on the day of the exam, and so much more. Questions are posted by the Instructor, the Students give their answers, then the correct answer is posted giving the reasons why. If Students don’t quite get it, don’t understand, it’s explained again. It really is a wonderful community there who support, help, encourage, cheer and celebrate with each other. What is also great is that past Students still are part of this Facebook Group even after they finish the Course and the exam. I am still there, asking questions, giving advise. This Course is really worth it’s weight in gold and I highly recommend it!! Lisa White CPDT-KA

the course helped me solidify information that I had studied in previous years

I did take the exam, and I passed with a good score. I felt that the course helped me solidify information that I had studied in previous years, and the practice questions and discussion in the Facebook group were invaluable. As time went on I began to treat the online course material more as a reference, relying on the Facebook group for my actual preparation. I did take the quizzes online, actually did that before any course work to get a sense of where I stood. After that I went through the coursework, and expect to return to the pdfs in the future to refresh my memory. The thing that stuck out for me most of all, though, was that before the course I understood the Humane Hierarchy to be a philosophy of training with which I agreed. After the course I saw how it serves as a structure to guide any behavior modification protocols, beginning with health and management before moving into the sequence of training. It’s been very helpful, and makes what we do very accessible to clients. Marnie Montgomery, CPDT-KA

The CPDT- KA Fundamentals was more than I expected as far as preparation,and training myself to think in the 4 Quadrants, it was invaluable! The information,questions, "posts",and practice test were a strong foundation for the CBCC - KA exam. Thank you ALL for responding to my last minute questions and helping with pre-test jitters!

“This course was very instructional and easy to follow.”

Yes, I passed! Yaaa! This was not an easy exam to prepare for. I had been gathering my own material according to the outline in the CPDT but reading a shelf full of books, although very educational, is not as technical as the material in the E-Training course. This course was very instructional and easy to follow. I'm certain that without the E-training Course I would not have passed. I look forward to taking more courses on-line with E-Training in the future. Thanks. Lynne Optland, CPDT-KA

The reason I passed the exam

I would be happy to comment on the course since it is the reason I passed the exam. I passed not just because of the excellent and accurate content prepared for us but also the superb delivery by Catherine Steinke. It was this combination, along with Catherine’s patience and consistency, that made the learning fun yet challenging. So to answer your questions: 1.) Yes I did take the test this March, 2015. Yes I did pass (235/250) the exam. 2.) In addition to the above testimonial, I would want to add that the Facebook questions were extremely valuable. The method was to challenge you on content, as well as, for us to pay attention as to “WHAT” was really being asked in the question. Plus, the opportunity to discuss any of these questions (some seemed controversial-great stuff) or concepts in detail during the Webcast. As a life-long learner, I found the collaboration and teamwork from all the students, instructor and staff made for a great, successful and fun experience. Jeff Joyce, CPDT-KA

In addition, from a CBCC-KA test participant:

You asked me to let you know if I passed my CBCC exam. Yes! Received my Certificate this week. I had several last minute questions in May & your group was quick to respond. I had taken this course last fall b/c the CBCC does not offer a study guide. I figured this course would be helpful, it was more than helpful it was invaluable! I encourage everyone to take this & then stay involved with the next students questions and answers. I truly believe answering your questions was what gave me the proper foundation for passing the CBCC exam. Thank you! Melissa M. Hatfield M.S., CBCC
